On A Mountain In The Clouds
Mast Landing Brewing Company

Bought this because its name describes my typical day, and was excited to try a NEIPA from these folks. I've enjoyed everything from this brewer so far, including this one. Decent effort in a very crowded market.

 

 

 

 

 

 

This stuff is amazing. Had it on draft in RI. Had it after a Captain's Daughter which is great in it's own right. I was blown away. The bar I was at was not known for it's beer selection, but I've had everything in the top 50 pretty much on BA. I say this stuff is up with the heavyweights. I headed over here the next day to rate it and I am amazed at the ratings and I find it to be very low. Was juicy, pillowy, bubble gum that struck all the right cords. Was not an artificial "fruity" and it did not have that large amount of malt that some people use to overcompensate for the bitterness of the hops. Absolutely crushable.

 

Not their best, but still a great NEIPA.

Picked it up fresh. As with many Mast Landing beers, not quite as pillowy as the New England heavyweights. But the flavor is there- Tastes like a citra bomb with a bit of simcoe and mosaic coming through- traditional always sits well with me.

Would definitely pick this up again. Love some Mast Landing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

From a 16 oz. can dated 10/11/21. SAMPLED NOV 6, 2021.

It pours a pretty straight forward looking foggy amber-yellow underneath a lingering foamy white head.

The aroma expresses tropical fruit, citrus, and a low profile breadiness. Pretty typical for the style. Nothing extraordinary.

Light-medium mouthfeel.

The taste is at first sweet and then those fruity and citrus hops step into the picture. There is a modest bittrerness on the end. it really is about what one expects from the style.
